Hi all,

I am very disappointed of mu in buster. In stretch I index nearly 300.000 emails
with mu. Each time I index new mails in mu4e I had to wait 15 minutes until the
indexing was complete. So I hoped that indexing with mu 1.2 would be much
faster, but instead mu eats all my memory and indexes several hours, even for
updating with new mail.

Anyone experiencing the same?

TIA
juh

I use Notmuch which uses libxapian and libgmime, just like Mu
(maildir-utils). Since the indexing and database backends are the same
you could try comparing Mu and Notmuch.

I have only about 35000 mails and with those Notmuch is really fast. The
initial indexing takes some minutes but after that everything is fast.

Of course, I can reduce the index time with .noupdate files in archive
folder but the process is terminated if I make a full rebuild.
